very nice!
I wonder dont they 'bite' your hand when you hold the scorpions?

Re: My other 'exotic pet'...
 

Cool! The scorpion sting on this species isn't dangerous, right? I read in an encyclopedia that the smaller the scorpion, the more dangerous. Maybe should consider upgrade your pet's home to something 'lebih luas dan selesa' :laugh:

Re: My other 'exotic pet'...
 

wow...nice and neat! i had 1 reptile and 2 mammals from tht shop....hehehe*biggrin2*

Re: My other 'exotic pet'...
 

sometimes,when the scorpion is in a bad mood,they will pinch....but u'll get the hang of it.I handle them by holding the tail,and if they do pinch,the key is never let go of the tail,or they will sting....just wait till the scorpion let go then u free ur hand.it's just like a crab pinch...

Yup,is just a mild sting from an Asian Forest Scorpion.From the info that i get,it says that the sting is just like a bee or wasp sting.u'll get only inflammations on the sting area.BUT be aware of any allergy reaction if u know to have one...
Upgrading the pets home,i'll put it on my budget planning for next year!:1thumbup:

ur reptile is a 4 legged or legless reptile?*biggrin2*hehehe
i wanted to have a pet snakes...but can't have one because of my mother phobia in them.she's terrified at seeing one....

Re: My other 'exotic pet'...

Just made payment for some 8 legged pet to martin...hhahahahha

Re: My other 'exotic pet'...

Re: My other 'exotic pet'...
 

Is it a good deal? Pm me the details pls...

Re: My other 'exotic pet'...
 

PM send....

Re: My other 'exotic pet'...
 

FYI, fauzi stall is not operating at subang now due to his organizer problem. Hopefully he can reopen soon.

Re: My other 'exotic pet'...
 

Very interesting hobby. I like spiders too, but don't keep them as pets :p tarantulas are still very expensive in pet shops. How long do they live for? Do you breed them?

Re: My other 'exotic pet'...
 

Not expensive if you buy slings(babies). The lifespan varies among female/male. Males have shorter lifespans, more or less 2-5 years depending on its maturity rate.

Re: My other 'exotic pet'...
 

Thanks, leetplayer.. :) I have lots of small jumping spiders as well as a couple of orb web spinners (Argiope sp) in my garden. Think that will suffice for now. Hehe.

Re: My other 'exotic pet'...
 

Oh,i did not knoe that....the last time i went there on March i did not find Fauzi stall...so i tought maybe he's not selling that day.but then from his website said that he moves to subang squares shop...,
anyway,thanks for the info....

just like leetplayer said,it is not so expensive went u buy from sling.butit also depent on what sp. u r buying.NO,i don't breed them...yet...still a newbie....hope to breed them when i mastered how to keep them...

Re: My other 'exotic pet'...
 

I went there few times myself and he is not there. Later ask about it only realized when i buy from him. He can arrange meeting there if you want to buy from him:1thumbup:.

Re: My other 'exotic pet'...
 

Thanks for the news on Mr.Fauzi,will do that if i'm going to buy new neps from him.

Re: My other 'exotic pet'...
 

i kept some fighting spiders when i was in 10years old +-. I believe some of us did that too...

Re: My other 'exotic pet'...
 

My parents would never agree with keeping these exotic pets. :( zulteh, you mean you've never visited mr. Fauzi's nursery before? You should!!!

Re: My other 'exotic pet'...
 

hehehe*biggrin2*....me too....


hohoho,my mum don't agree to in the 1st place.but i just go ahead and keep those exotic pets....NOTE:i'm not suggesting u to do that,just saying....
Yup!i've never visited mr.fauzi nursery in ampang b4.only meet him at subang.But i really hope that i can go to his nursery some day...it's just bcoz that i'm working from monday-saturday,8am-5pm.no time to made an apointment to his nursery....
